Foster Care is Community Care

It is crucial for children to grow up in secure and nurturing environments. In their early years, children are in the process of forming connections, learning to
communicate, and expressing affection. They are also building self-esteem and a sense of self-worth. Children's Friend's foster parents fulfill a fundamental
need and sow the seeds for a healthy future. Our foster parents come from diverse backgrounds but share a common dedication to positively impacting
a child's life. A heartfelt thank you to our devoted foster parents who generously open their homes and hearts to children in need.
